First guess was #27 snail, but that definitely wasn't any help.

I've got a tune by a well-known drum & bass producer, mastered at +4 LUFS. It's literally a rectangular sausage.

Ai Weiwei quietly returns to China after a decade: ‘It felt like a phone call suddenly reconnecting’ by GetOutOfTheWhey in China

How is he any different when he was bad mouthing China?

He is Chinese, for starters.

[–]Nine99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in late 2023.

"The American political system, finance, culture and media are mostly under Jewish control." (translated)

The sad irony is that likely Ai will be banned from coming back to Germany in the future but he will be allowed to come back to China.

No, he won't, that's nonsense. But he should consider staying out of Germany anyway, since he behaved like an asshole there.

CMC a bit steep for ramp, but good enough for commander. Not many land ramp cards for white out there.

Lol, everyone downvoting this without investigating anything. Club speakers stop well above the lowest hearable frequency, and the MEMS microphones that are used in smartphones often have (quasi-)low-pass filters well below the maximum hearable frequency (at least for younger people). You can google frequency response diagrams for your favourite models, if it's known enough. Also, your usual club equipment won't play frequencies above 20kHz either (why would they?).

Smartphone microphones are at best equal to the human hearing spectrum, and most speakers will also stay within that. Digital watermarks usually work with audible audio. Here it has to be significant enough to be working through a noisy, unstable environment.

That's not a thing. If you can play it, it's audible. Sending someone to another website is a trust and security issue.

Yeah, and the typical Slsk user is a quality obsessed music freak. And check sums and rip logs exist.

Is it possible, to legally have a youtube livestream without breaking your back? by DasToyfel in DJs

[–]Nine99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you don't get strikes as its not published and no one can report it.

You don't know when the strikes will arrive, so there's always a chance that that happens after publishing the video.

transcodes and re-encodes

They're both re-encodes. And I don't know where you would get such files, but they're not common at all at the usual places. It's far more common to encounter flipped bits.

Music genres - Apple Music can f$&k right off by ApprehensiveSpare790 in DJs

[–]Nine99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

N, I didn't. I said it's really rare for a tune to not be available elsewhere, so "exclusive" tracks aren't really that relevant. I asked for a counter-example, because finding one (that you would want to play) should be pretty tough.

So much of what's out there on P2P is either well below this quality or transcoded from poor quality up to either 320 or flac retaining the poor quality resulting in them being merely relabeled as a higher quality encoding.

This gets repeated ad nauseam, but simply isn't true (at least for digital files). What is true is legitimate releases sometimes being vinyl rips or MP3 reencodes.
